[Q] Phone keeps rebooting endlessly after running out of power. - General Questions and Answers

So my phone ran out of power earlier today. Upon charging it, I tried booting it up, entered PIN etc., but now it just reboots in an endless loop, regardless of what I do.
HTC Desire, running MildWild 5.0 stable release. No prior problems of this kind.
How do I fix it?

I had a similar problem, mine was caused by fastbooting. Turn off fastboot if it is on.

Thanks for replying.
How do I turn fastboot off again? Running Revolutionary bootloader.
EDIT: Seems like I found the problem. It boots up normally, if I remove the microSD card. I'm guessing the camera was on when it ran out of power, and somehow the SD was fried? Going to check it in a card reader later today. Otherwise I guess I'll have to replace it.

Nevermind.
Card wasn't fried, it reads fine in a USB reader, but makes the phone reboot over and over, so it's gotta be a software error. But I bought a new one, and flashed new ROM anyway.

Another thing to try would be going into the bootloader and clearing the cache and Dalvik. Failing that, a backup followed by a factory-reset, to help tell if it's a software problem.

[Q] SD Card not being detected

Recently had a issue with this transformer I got from CL, First had aboot looping issue, called asus and they were going to replace it, but I let the battery drain, hooked it up to my laptop and it just started working.
I updated it, downloaded apps, played around with it up to now where I want to use the mircoSD card slot and it's not working, I have 2 and nothing is being detected, Firmware is update, it's pure stock. It gives no indication of trying to read the SD card, I looked for it in Astro and nothing, it cant even try to make the directory.
I've done restarts and such as well
SD Card is formatted to fat32 (both cards)
Any clues?
Bad port or unlucky software flash, I'd say. Try a factory reset, if that doesn't fix you should RMA borked hardware.
Annnnnnd now I am back to being stuck in the boot loop....Godf'n damnit
Alright, so you're totally stock. I'd say you're mostly screwed, can you Cold-Boot android? If so I'd try rooting and putting cwm on there + a rom and kernel to fix issues.
Otherwise, RMA.
It's getting RMA'd regardless but I'm just not sure why the hell it started working last night out of the blue
it's not being detected by adb devices in recovery. I tried cold booting and just stays in boot loop
Yeah, just RMA it at this pt.

Brand new Nexus 5 DOA

The the device came in today and when I turn it on The Google logo comes, turns off and restarts for a boot loop. I even did a full restore using the recovery toolkit like swoggers and even then no luck. I was able to install twrp with no issue. Anyone have the same issue ?
Thanks
Anyone?

I had problems AFTER I installed TWRP, but before that it booted just fine.
My problems started after unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP. Try wiping as much as possible (except System) with TWRP. I read somewhere it's a problem with the cache partition. I also went into "Mount" in TWRP (I think that's what it's called) and mounted System. I'm telling you all this from memory, not sure exactly how I fixed it, but eventually I was able to turn the phone on.
Hopefully this is the reason you're having problems. It'd be frustrating to have to try and get another one from the Goog.

Rooted/S-Off/TWRP Now to freezes and reboot even on Recovery Mode....Please Help

Update:
ok somehow i managed to get my phone rooted/s-off on hboot 2.15 , TWRP 2.6.3 and made backup of ROM, everything in a few misn it allowed me to work it on fastboot, but the problem is sometimes i turn it on on Bootloader when i connect the USB cable it freezes/reboot/turnoff/works (random) , now when i manage to get into recovery, sometimes it works wiping but sometimes it just freezes and reboot, also the battery says 66%, all of the sudden is 99% then back to 66%, so i been thinking is never been a software issue, cause i wiped the rom and just boon into recovery and still do it, but its more like a hardware issue......anyone have the closest idea what i can do/try to try and fix it.
now that i got my phone working from not doing anything at all , its been working fine for a couple of days but right now screen was off when i went to check it was off , connected to charger no light so i did this :
Connected it to wall charger.
Press power + volume down
Orange LED went on
Let it sit for 5 mins
Turn it on
It turns on and battery is at around 70%
Could it be battery is bad and phone is missreading it or could it be something else ?
please anyone with any ideas, im so tired already ill try anything.

This happened to me as well I wiped the whole device meaning SD and rom then this stopped happening
mmm ill try that havent wipe SD yet but i dont see if that could be the problem but doesnt hurt trying but its just hard to even stay on the recovery long enough to wipe.
didnt work, wipe it all , reinstalled RUU stock , unlocked and rerooted again , super CID, still does that crap i think maybe hardware issue
phone is been for more than a week at a local repair center and i dont think they can even figure it out, they said may be software issue but i know for a fact isnt, it had stock rom, i wiped it out, everything, reinstall using RUU, still same problem.

[Q] Restart loop(not bootloop) - really weird

Hey lads,
I got a really weird problem and I've tried nearly everything I can think of. I had EMUI 2.3(b121sp06) and I tried the online OTA update to b307 if I remember right(was automatically suggesting the update) and at the update screen it loaded to about 99% and then stopped. Said not to press power while on this screen but obviously it wasn't going to finish. So I reset the phone and it started the "recovery loop", so basically keep trying to apply the update. I had to flash CWM to break out and flashed the whole system by hand(recovery,system,boot,cache,cust and userdata img files) and it starts up but it keeps resetting and seemingly it's random. Android boots up, I don't touch the phone--> boom reset. Weird thing is it even does it in recovery.
If I really want to explain the problem it's like as if my finger got stuck on the power button(that naturally made me think that the button might be f*cked), but booting into fastboot and not having resets cleared my suspicion. What I also noticed is that every time it boots up it doesn't recognize the sim card and I have no signal or whatsoever.
Tried multi tool unbricking method -> doesn't work
Tried factory reset from stock recovery(had to be fast so it doesn't reset before) ->doesn't work
Tried wiping dalvik cache and factory reset from CWM ->doesn't work
Tried killing battery by letting it keep resetting -> battery drained, reset loop stopped ->put the phone on charger->reset loop started again
I have no f*cking clue how can I get out of this, will keep trying though. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
Hi
Did you try to remove the Sd Card ? Honor 6 reboot is often due to faulty SD Card.
Which model do you have ? L04 ?
B307 upgrade sure ?
Seb
Yes, that was my first idea, still does it though. I have the L02 and I'm not positive it was b307, but it started with 3, could be b303 if there is one.
I don't know for L02 but for L04 there is a Full ROM that you can flash with the three buttons method. (Vol+,Vol-, power and put the ROM in /dload folder on the SD card).
Maybe there is such thing for L02 ?
There is, but as I said the phone restarts even in recovery. It's like the phone restarts every 30 secs except for fastboot.
if it's not SD card or internal flash problem so, it seems to be hardware related to me (
Would make sense but it occurred only after I tried OTA. Would be really surprised if that killed that hardware :-/

Unfortunately not, I'm out of ideas, trying to negotiate with the seller to sort something out, I think the phone is beyond saving
Same thing happened with me. Don't have any solution. Have you fixed it?

Its might be a battery problem Or power flex cable. Try to turn on the phone during charge
guys im facing the same problem now... waiting for any solutions
I have tried stop & uninstall some app
I've tried as quickly as I can when the phone (nokia x) is on, then I stop> uninstall I consider potentially cause this problem (facebook, whatsapp, uc browser) and then it managed to prevent the continuous restarts. but problems arise even though the application had me uninstall and then I restart the phone. and it is back again, I uninstalled the app that has remained with the error settings and restart repeatedly. who knows what else : '(

Did you follow the guide here?
Sent from my Honor 8 using XDA Labs
In the past my battery lost it's endurance pretty much. Furthermore I've read that a defective battery causes lots of weird behaviours on our Honor 6, which was the same to mine.
In my case a replacement of the battery worked well, to get my Honor 6 back to life:

It's not that difficult and lasts approx. 30-45 mins. Spare Batteries are available for 6 - 10 bucks on ebay or directly from the chinese internet stores.

It's really important that we use original chargers for the health of our device.

Bricked or hardware issue

I was charging my phone overnight. In the morning I realized it didn't charge, I tried to turn it on and it gets stuck on the HTC screen.
I was running Viper One 3.21, I tried rebooting, entered recovery, tried to reinstal a nandroid, got stuck on the screen again.
Tried reinstalling ViperOne same problem.
Here's what I know:
Fastboot will NOT work, while I can get to fastboot, any time I reboot the phone it gets stuck.
I can't get to RUU (because it wont go past the HTC screen).
adb sideload will not work
I've let the battery drain, fully charged it; no change.
I tried wiping and doing a factory reset but it just gets stuck on the reboot, I also noticed on the File manager within TWRP that my phone was never wiped.
Any ideas?

Sorta sounds like one of the bricked ones where the entire emmc goes write protected. If you can't get fastboot or ruu mode and have no warranty left I can take a look at it for you. I'm in PA so it wouldn't take long to mail it here.
Not sure how it got bricked, it has been over a month since I flashed anything.
I am able to use adb sideload, but any file I use it says is corrupted.
Could I partition part of the drive and try to instal from there?
What part of PA are you in?

I am down in the York/Harrisburg/Lancaster area. You don't want to partition emmc manually.
